Two years in the making, Version 3 means it's finally time for Pro Tools users to experience the quality of everything we do at Stillwell Audio, and to enjoy the way we do it. Do you use a VST3 host? Ask no more, because now we've got you covered as well.

We have a new website (did you notice?) and *tada* please bid welcome to Broadsword, our newest developer. Of course, by 'Everything' we mean 'not quite everything', because PsychoDither is not quite up to V3 (stand by for that!) and 'Microshope' has been discontinued.

The Rocket

If Stillwell Audio was a greatest hits album, The Rocket would be track one. Lauded and beloved of VST and AU users, now also available as AAX and VST3 ...welcome to the party!

Ultra-fast character effects compressor with ‘All Buttons’ ratio mode, sidechaining, and the ability to take the delicate, musical gain reduction to the extremes of dirty, heavy and slamming rock’n’roll misbehaviour.

Updated downloads have been posted to the website for all products. The primary fix for this update is to allow many VST3 hosts to see the plugin’s factory presets. Presonus Studio One notably still does not show presets – we are continuing to work on that. If you do not use VST3 plugins primarily, you likely do not need this update, but of course are welcome to download as always. All version numbers have been incremented.

A number of product updates have been posted to the website, including fixes for installers on 32-bit Windows, a fix for an overly-zealous compiler optimization in Transient Monster on Windows, and a number of other fixes that we found after exposing code to the REAL world. Our beta testers, as awesome as they are, can only find so much. Thanks for everyone’s patience and cooperation in reporting issues – keep it up! Just re-download installers and re-install. Version numbers may change to .01, .02, .03 depending on what fixes were made.

It’s been a LONG time coming, but it’s finally here. Version 3.0.0 brings many noteworthy features and fixes. All known compatibility issues have been addressed for current users, and for those users that have been waiting patiently (or not), we’re finally fully consistent – all plugins are available 32 and 64 bit, both Mac and PC (with the exception of Psycho Dither which is still WIP and Microschope which has been retired due to lack of activity). The most exciting bit for new users, though, is additional platform support. We now support VST3 and (wait for it…) Pro Tools. Our plugins are available in RTAS (legacy), 32-bit AAX Native (Pro Tools 10), and 64-bit AAX Native (Pro Tools 11). Where appropriate, we have also built in support for Audiosuite (AS).

We hope that you’re as excited as we are, and please forgive the dust as we make final tweaks to the website now that we’ve got it up and running. Oh, did I forget to mention that we did a total rewrite on the website? The old place has never looked so good…it needed a good coat of paint and some dusting.

I think some of you may already be aware of this, but just wanted to put it out there for you: We’re on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/stillwellaudio, and on Twitter @StillwellAudio. Feel free to like/follow as you wish. If you’re normally in those channels more often than you’re here on the website, you may get news faster that way.

Character Equalizer

This is one of those mythical plugins that makes things sound better just by plugging it in. Really. Vibe-EQ is an equalizer that shapes the character of the sound; its is all about color. The more boost or cut you dial in, the more color and funk you get, in the form of rich harmonic variation of the frequencies you choose.
